but Mr.. Ford, by extending his business re-
lations, paying close attention to detail, an
nually visiting Europe, making critical &C.
lections and purchasing direct for cash in the
markets of the world, feels perfect conf

and low priced articles will surprise buyers
in price, extent and variety. Everything in
his establishment is marked at low price in
plain figures.
